Second Hole of Drill Program Encounters 8.7 m Graphitic Pelite Interval with Strong Radioactivity Reaching up to 33,600 cps

鑽探計劃的第二個孔遇到了一個持續時間爲8.7米的含石墨頁岩間隙,放射性很強,達到33,600個計數 / 秒。

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2024) - Aero Energy Ltd (TSXV: AERO) (OTC Pink: AAUGF) (FSE: UU3) ("Aero" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the intersection of strong radioactivity in the second drill hole (M24-017) of its 2024 exploration drilling program on the Murmac Uranium Project ("Murmac" or the "Project"), located in Northern Saskatchewan. An average of 1,309 counts per second was intersected over 8.7 metres in graphitic pelite, with up to 33,600 counts per second (using handheld RS-125 Spectrometer) associated with visible uranium mineralization. The drilling program is being funded by the Company and is operated by Fortune Bay Corp (TSXV: FOR) (OTCQB: FTBYF) (FSE: 5QN) ("Fortune Bay").

Galen McNamara, CEO of Aero Energy, stated, "The discovery of strong radioactivity in only the second hole ever drilled by the Company confirms our exploration thesis, underscores the prospectivity of the search-space, and opens up many interesting discovery possibilities. The occurrence of strong alteration and radioactivity within both the quartzite hangingwall and targeted graphitic pelite units provides early indications that this mineralized system looks to be robust. We look forward to unlocking additional value with our partners at Fortune Bay as we aggressively pursue further uranium mineralization at Murmac."

Aero能源的CEO Galen McNamara表示:"公司在第二個鑽孔中發現強烈的放射性,證實了我們的勘探論點,突顯了探索空間的前途,並開闢了許多有趣的發現可能性。 在蛇紋岩蓋層和有針對性的石墨質泥岩單位中發現的強變質和放射性的發生提供了早期跡象表明,這個礦化系統看起來是很健壯的。我們期待在與Fortune Bay的合作伙伴一起積極追求Murmac的鈾礦化,並創造額外的價值."

Target Information

目標信息

Hole M24-017 was collared to test an EM conductor on the Howland Corridor at the intersection of a cross-cutting fault with numerous historical uranium occurrences and radioactive showings. The geophysical characteristics of target H15 manifests as a subtle electromagnetic ("EM") high with a subtle coincident gravity low. The interpreted EM conductor is approximately 1.2 kilometres in length, with approximately 1 kilometre (not previously drill tested) sub-cropping beneath the narrow Howland Lake, and is not exposed at surface.

鑽孔M24-017是爲了測試豪蘭通道上一個與數個歷史性鈾發生和輻射表現交錯的橫斷故障相交處的EM導體而套設的. 目標H15的地球物理特徵表現爲微妙的EM高和一個微妙的重力低. 解釋的EM導體長度約1.2公里,約1公里(以前沒有鑽探過的)亞表露於狹窄的豪蘭湖底下,並且在表面上沒有暴露。

Radioactivity Results

放射性結果

The preliminary results, representing total gamma from NQ2 drill core measured with a Super-SPEC RS-125 handheld spectrometer reported in counts per second ("cps"), are presented in Table 1 below. Measurements are typically collected over 0.10 to 0.15 m intervals through areas of anomalous radioactivity (defined as >300 counts per second, or "cps"). Longer intervals with less variation are shown as length weighted averages for simplicity.

初步結果代表來自用Super-SPEC RS-125手持式光譜儀測量的NQ2鑽芯的總伽馬,以每秒計算的計數值("cps")呈現在下面的表1中。 測量通常在異常放射區域(定義爲>300秒/秒或"cps")的0.10至0.15米間隔收集。由於長度較長且變化較小,所以列出了較小的重量平均值以簡化。

Intermittent radioactivity is present in the hangingwall quartzite between 81.10 and 85.80 metres down hole. The targeted graphitic unit which predominantly hosts the strong radioactivity is currently interpreted to be dipping at approximately 70° towards the southeast. Drill hole M24-017 is oriented towards an azimuth of 310° (True North) with a dip of -55°. The nature and orientation of any possible mineralization has not yet been constrained, and potential mineralization true thicknesses have not yet been determined. Radioactive intercepts are shown in Figure 2. High resolution photographs of the most anomalous intercepts are shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5.

在井下81.10到85.80米之間的蓋層石英岩中間斷的放射性存在。有針對性的石墨化單位主要是向東南傾斜約70°。鑽孔M24-017的方向爲310°(真正北)並具有-55°的傾角。任何可能礦化的性質和方向尚未確定,也尚未確定潛在礦化的真厚度。放射性截留在圖2中顯示。最異常的截獲的高清晰度照片顯示在圖3,4和5中。

The cps values are averages for the reported drill interval. Measurements of total gamma cps are an indication of the presence of uranium, thorium and/or potassium, but may not directly correlate with chemical uranium assays. Total gamma cps results are preliminary in nature and may not be used directly to quantify uranium concentrations in the drill core samples. True thicknesses of the drill core intersections are yet to be determined.

Next Steps

下一步

Drill core samples are being collected systematically throughout any zones with radioactivity higher than 300 cps. All samples will be submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories in Saskatoon for U3O8 assay and multi-element characterization.

正在系統地收集所有放射性高於300 cps的區域中的岩心樣品。所有樣品將被提交到薩斯卡通的SRC地球化學實驗室進行鈾測定以及多元素表徵。3O8

The Company is currently assessing options to follow-up and step out from this zone of strong radioactivity. Follow-up is expected to include down-dip and along-strike testing (in both directions) of the host graphitic unit. Initial follow-up will be carried out as a priority and will begin on completion of the current hole.

公司目前正在評估跟進和擺脫這個區域的強輻射選項。後續工作將包括對主要石墨化單元進行下傾斜和沿長向測試(在兩個方向上)。首要的初始跟進工作將在當前位置完成後進行。

About the Murmac Project

關於Murmac項目

Murmac, situated between the historical Gunnar and Lorado Uranium Mines, has shown significant promise. Historical exploration (1960-1980) revealed numerous high-grade uranium occurrences, though these were not systematically explored for basement-hosted mineralization typical of the Athabasca Basin. A 2022 drilling program by Fortune Bay confirmed the potential for high-grade uranium with significant findings in several drill holes, validating the exploration model.

Murmac位於歷史悠久的Gunnar和Lorado鈾礦之間,顯示出重要潛力。 歷史勘探(1960-1980)揭示了許多高品位鈾出現,但這些並沒有系統地探索Athabasca盆地典型的基底礦化。Fortune Bay在2022年的鑽探計劃證實了高品位鈾的潛力,並在多個鑽孔中發現了重要成果,驗證了勘探模型。

Historical Results

歷史結果

Further details regarding the historical uranium occurrences noted in this news release can be found within the Saskatchewan Mineral Assessment Database (SMAD) and the Saskatchewan Mineral Deposit Index (SMDI). Fortune Bay has verified the majority of these occurrences through field prospecting and sampling, however there is a risk that any future confirmation work and exploration may produce results that substantially differ from the unverified historical results. The Company considers these unverified historical results relevant to assess the mineralization and economic potential of the property. The historical drill results obtained by SMDC in drill holes CKI-9 and CKI-10 can be found within the SMAD references 74N07-0310 and 74N07-0311 and have not been verified. Additional historical exploration results (uranium occurrences related to geochemistry results and scintillometer prospecting) derive from SMAD references 74N07-0290, 74N07-0287 and 74N07-0304.
